What the council had to say

Deputy leader of Preston City Council councillor Robert Boswell said: “Last night Cabinet made the difficult decision to maintain the current rules regarding grave memorialisation at Preston Cemetery.

“As to whether or not it will be called in, I cannot comment. However scrutiny is an important part o the democratic process and members are fully entitled to call decisions in if they feel it is necessary.”

Update: Confirmation was given on Friday 23 March the decision has been called-in. It will be discussed at a future scrutiny committee meeting.
